Oh god yes! Got us a couple of years back too, Apple tea massage etc... He wanted 20 mil each, I gave him 10 mil total and of course he was not too happy. Saw him again a few days later and told him not to bother with all the crap because he was a bandit. He apologised and gave us apple tea for free, then he stung us with another scam!
"We have some fresh Turkish Delight, please try some" he said and motioned the woman to get it. She came out with it and we tried it - It was fantastic! So, I thought why not, I went inside and ordered a few boxes to take home for the lads at work. Having chosen what I wanted, he ushered us back outside to sit and finish our apple tea, she brought out the TD boxes a few minutes later, I paid and we left on good terms. Then... I got to work the following week and put out the TD for all to eat - it was crap! (Hard and chewy, probably 2 years old!).
Did not see him at all last year, luckily for him!
PS. He told us he had worked in France for several years, so I guess that's another tall story! |

Yep, I was nearly duped by him last year. There was also a rather clingy Dolmus driver also last year but thats another story.
I think we should have a 'Stay away from' forum complete with pics. |

Hi everyone
yes thats the man me and my friends got caught too although we ended up paying less. Don,t worry about being rude to this man, no doubt i will be that way again, and i shall go out of my way to be rude.
After we got out we met some other English people and told them to be careful, but they already knew about him and told us if this ever happened again to say that we are going to call the police , apparently we were told, this frightens him and works wonders on him letting you out of the shop.
But best of all don,t go in in the first place. |
